When it’s nice, we have the most fun at the playground. I have the most energized and daring 2 and a half year old of all time. So to get him exhausted enough to sleep we play “superhero obstacle course” on the equipment! I basically give him a route through the jungle gym ( up ladders, down slides, weaving through swings, etc.) to save the a person from the Villans. We race to see who can get there first! ( or so that I can stay close and make sure he is being safe 🙂 ) He loves it! And it makes me feel like a kid again!
I have two toddlers and dance parties in our living room has to be our favorite! We also have fun playing Ring around the Rosie’s (over and over again till mommy is dizzy) My personal favorite is putting one of them on my shoulders and doing squats, they have a blast while I get my butt in shape lol
No kids of my own yet (but trying!). I have worked with kids for 13 years in programs designed to get kids off the couch and getting at least 30 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity a day. My favorite ways to trick them to play and have some fun are the following:
-never ending simon says: instead of normal Simon says where you sit out when you are done, you run two games at once on opposite sides of a field or gym and when you get out you run to the other side and just jump in on the other game. 100% movement the whole time.
-Create a pose: great on rainy days I have kids “create” and name their own yoga poses (appropriate names of course). I monitor for safety so no one is injured, but let them come up with new ways to stretch their body…like “banana eating monkey”
Soccer, dance and tumbling pretty much takes up our week 🙂 lots of exercise for my kiddos!!
My husband and I run, one with the dog, the other with the Chariot holding our 3 yrs old son andd my 6 yrs old daughter runs her bicycle along side us, now that’s what I call a productive workout :p
Am.disable but I do exercise the best I can with my daughter to a workout called Zumba with Mandisa she loves dancing to Zumba with Mandisa , she will say let dance she will put on exercise cloths and shoes she trys to match watch am wearing LOL.
We live around a lot of parks and our city is surrounded
By a river, so in the summer I enjoy taking my two boys for walks
Near the shoreline and just enjoy the great views
NB, Canada
Crank up the music and boogie down. It’s dynamic and we all enjoy this moment !
I have four boys aged 9, 6 and twins are 11months. We usually have dance parties before breakfast lunch and dinner in the kitchen while we make dinner then a walk to the park after dinner. My boys love dancing!
My little guy is almost one year. I like to do yoga with him. When I’m in down ward dog and he put his head next to mine and smiles, it melts my heart.
